I can't believe I read twenty five pages of this. I should have read twenty five pages of "Understanding Exposure". I agree with all of you, but I think my life would have better served if there were zero responses to this i***t.

My first time video- taping a soccer game was a mild success. My camera has the capability to take snapshots while video-taping but they aren’t high quality. I could take stills from the video itself, but they are even worse quality. My thinking then became why not take pictures with my old bridge camera at the same time and get good quality. The video camera pretty much runs all the time and I can use a remote shutter on the still camera. I mounted the two cameras side by side and will use a monopod. Soccer season isn’t ‘till next Spring so I haven’t tried it out yet.

After growing up in Klamath Falls, and later moving to Portland, I miss the stars. On a good night we can see about twenty stars and a couple of satellites.

One of the neatest displays I've seen was quite a few years ago. They had a TV half submerged in a liquid and the TV was on and playing. This was to demonstrate that their liquid (similar to WD-40) did not conduct electricity.

Thank you for looking into this. I will certainly check out the Apple USB 3.0 SuperDrive, but as much as this new computer has cost, I may be looking at the lesser of two weevils.[/quote]

Thank you very much. This does give me absolutely everything I wanted to know..........and then some.

ISO speed refers to the cameras sensor's sensitivity to light. The higher the ISO, the more sensitive, thus allowing a faster shutter speed to produce the same exposure using the same aperture and shutter speed. I understand this and that ASA and ISO are the same thing. What my question is do these numbers, 100, 400, 800, etc. mean anything? Is it a measure of how much light is captured in how many seconds? Did the ASA people just start with an arbitrary number, say 100, and say the next film will gather the light four times faster so they called it 400?
Just wondering.

I found out in Alaska that it is hard to get quality pictures from a bobbing boat of a moving whale. These are great.

I have had many cats over the years. It is nice to have these pictures after they are gone and not sitting in your lap any more. Your picture is superb. Here is one of my favorites, even though she didn't care for me much.

Happy Birthday! I have absolutely no idea who you are but Happy birthday. Isn't this a little bit Facebookish?

The horses wouldn't spook crossing the river in a covered bridge.

Mine was a 1953 Ford with the column linkage moved to the transmission. This made it a floor shift, but the shift pattern was backwards. When I tried to fix that, I found out everything was welded together and I couldn't change it.

It could be, I wasn't using a hood.
